There’s nothing scarier than being honest with yourself. For singer/songwriter Al Olender, facing her fear of the truth has been a cleansing, often cathartic process that’s led to the kind of revelations she had previously thought unobtainable. On her debut full-length album Easy Crier, the Upstate New York based artist asks: what happens if we vow to never tell a lie, ever again? Charting the daunting territories of staring your demons right in the face and prodding at the ugly parts of your reflection, Olender pieces together her most vulnerable moments to produce a celebratory and beautiful rumination on grief, and reminds us of the power that comes in really getting to know yourself.

We went to Ocean City, MD for my birthday. The same beach I’ve been going to since I was a kid. I wrote a lot (more) words about this video, but it speaks for itself. I’ve always been obsessed with coming of age movies and this feels like mine. My longest friend Abigail Dempsey made this video. She’s always been a prolific creator & talent, a generous artist and wildly GIVING to her loved ones....
Al Olender "Liar, Liar"

Hi I'm Al & I hope you find my messy bedroom endearing! When I started to write this song, I did a lot of hiding behind metaphors & what I thought sounded heartbreaking. I realized it's way sadder to just tell the truth. I wish I would have had this song a few years ago to help me realize leaving a good person doesn't make you the villain. Maybe it will show you something you didn't realize eit...

You are the heart of beauty
Sobbing; every word is a knife in my soul
Thank you for playing this for us at Abilene in Rochester. You crushed it and we had a great time at your show! Your new song is PERFECT, don't change anything.
Feeling seen in Eugene ♡
Saw you live with Shovels & Rope last night in Knoxville. Great show, we had a blast. Your jokes made us laugh and your voice is simply beautiful!. I've never been more moved by Blue Bayou, and I've honestly had Runner Up stuck in my head all day lol. Keep at it, wishing you the best in your career!
I saw this chick at Lee's Palace in Toronto and her voice was incredible. It'll blow your fucking back out it's so powerful. She talks a lot.....in a good way. She interacts with audience and it feels as though everyone is apart of her set, which i really liked. Her jokes were lame, but it was still pretty adorable. I'm really looking forward to hearing more of her music, and I would totally go and see her again. Plus, my girlfriend seemed jealous that I expressed how much I enjoyed her set, and I got laid big time that night. So thanks for that too Al. This shit feels like a yelp review all of a sudden. Oh well, fuck it.
Just saw you CRUSH it at the Sinclair in Cambridge, MA... Wish you well ❤️🩹
Hey Allison. Or Al. Whatever you like. Do you remember the song we wrote? Somewhere down the road I've memorized lyrics. "You, you always liked, when I'd paint pictures of the sky and you would laugh and I would cry cuz I was nev, never sure, of the color combinations to match your eyes." Etc. God bless you Allison. Peace and love homie.
Preach. Why do our parents fail us? And we are left in wakes, squeezed by the takes that leave us quaked. You get older and you can't be fake. You gotta be honest. And so. We're left generational inheritances that make us want to vomit. Puke our souls and leave our bodies for Heaven. Seeing my "cousin" from my past hoping for 777. Some luck to help me leave here for good. Leave this body. And move on to a heavenly hood.
Saw her open for Shovels and Rope last night at Lark Hall in Albany NY. She was fantastic!
Just seen & heard in Hackney, London. Fantastic.
Im from the Berlin wtnv show! Oliver hi hi! Your music gave and is giving so much joy! It was SO neat hearing you as the shows start and weather!
Saw you live last night in antwerp and you were amazing!!
another beautiful song from Al... Sofa King Good
Got out of bed late with a song in my head, packed up lunch & hit the road. Driving down Broadway, on my way to work, I hit the home button on the iPhone, and Said, hey Siri play, Al Olender! Siri replied, I cannot find what you are looking for in Apple Music, or in your Library. So I decided to fix it real quick, and that’s when I downloaded everything song I could find by, Al Olender. Now Siri has no problems at all finding Al! 😎👍🎉
When I watch this video I stop Squinting because I can see so clearly
❤Missing you! Missing Abigail, Hannah, Benjamin, Chris, Jesse! Missing, Forlorn Strangers, and the whole crew. ❤
How do I like, again, and again, and again? I cannot find the like again buttons! Any help here? 😂 UA-cam needs more buttons! What’s up UA-cam!?
❤👍❤ How do you say!? I got a good habit of liking, “YOU”, Al Olander! Sorry, if I spell it wrong, but I’m not sorry If I know how to love you right! 💕
Ahhh what a gift! Can’t wait to hear it February 9th💙💙🤍💌💛👼🪽🫶💒
Wow...great song - love it!
Wish I could keep liking this. Beautiful. Thank you.
Wow, Amazing, Al!,, You have come so far, sense the first time I saw you perform, at the family wash in, east Nashville, almost 8 years ago now. I like where you are going with the sound.
How you ever hooked up with Gypsy Kings i will never know maybe cause they liked your Guitar
Seen you live last night at the Paramont opening for the Gypsy Kings you have a nice country vibe keep throwing in your songs but throw in some old country classics too by stevie nicks Landslide ..Dolly Parton the quilt of many colors or islands in the stream or stand by your man and letd update to include stand by your woman and another song I took a louievill sluger to head maybe next time he will think before he cheats you guitar is so darn shiny it almost blinded me with the lights reflecting off it even Gypsy kings did a few old favorites one called volare which everyone including myself sang along to Dean Martin sang Volare back in the 70s so did perry Cuomo who was a friend of my neighbors i hope you find that 1 hit wonder song too my friend lenny coco from lenny coco and the chimes worked with me and had a hit once in a while back in the 60s good luck kid
Play wherever you want --- I'll still be here (in New England)
saw you last night in Lowell. Beautiful voice you killed Blue Bayou. Much success to you
Really enjoyed your set at the Arcadia Folk Festival last month. Thanks for the music and especially for the stories in your songs.
This music is criminally short
Loved your work at the Nightvale Live Show in Boston! Definitely becoming a big fan from now onnn!!! ❤
Cool song!
Great voice and playing! We saw you last night in Monterey open for the Gipsy Kings and your guitar tone was killer.....thanks for visiting!!! Best of luck on the tour.....
With your sound and voice I am seriously saddened/surprised that you haven’t been caught up by mainstream. I am honestly confused I have followed since you worked with The Felipe Brothers… idk killer… you have something that here in NC we live for
Obsessed with the pure joy radiating from this video!
This is a bop! Love the sapphic music! You should add some WLW, Sapphic, and Queer tags. I'm sure the LGBTQ community would love this. Keep up the great work, Al!
Seeing your growth throughout the years has been a incredible journey , you rock AL
My wife and I saw you on the video with James Felice and really loved that track. You rule!
She moves my heart….
